I have been in another forum since 17-Oct-2005 and I joined this one this one a little over a month ago… and I would dare to say that I have learned almost as much as if I had attended College for that period of time…
Spending time on these forums demands that you evaluate other people’s opinion, that you find out the “essential points” in long rambling posts… if also forces you to do researches to substantiate your opinions… it adds to your vocabulary… etc…
So, I would certainly not think that time spent on forums is idle time… however, it is for each of us to reach our own conclusion on that subject…
